The Dawn of the Forward Look: The 1956 Plymouth “Aerodynamic! New! Fins!”
In 1956, Chrysler design chief Virgil Exner shook the automotive world to its core, breaking away from boxy post-war shapes to unleash the “Forward Look.” This print-to-order ceramic coffee mug celebrates the exact moment aerodynamics met American styling, reproducing the high-visibility national magazine advertisements that introduced the world to the sleek, jet-age 1956 Plymouth lineup.
The wrap captures the pure optimism of the mid-50s horsepower race, screaming with authentic vintage taglines like “Aerodynamic!”, “New!”, and “Fins!” across the layout. This design honors the gorgeous profile of Plymouth’s flagship lines—including the Belvedere, Savoy, and Plaza—while spotlighting the debut of the flight-sweep canted rear tail fins that revolutionized automotive design. Look closely at the crisp factory layout lines and period-correct typography detailing groundbreaking mechanical innovations of the era, such as the push-button TorqueFlite automatic transmission and the newly advanced Hy-Fire V8 engine variants. It’s a striking, colorful monument to the birth of the finned era, built to sit right on your desk or workbench.
